This is Wikipedia's oldest remaining Featured list, but unfortunately it has a number of issues, though admittedly ones that can probably be resolved without excessive effort. To assess it against the criteria, I would say it primarily suffers against criteria 3a and 4, but it has problems with a number of them.
- The lead is mostly unreferenced.
- The article is out of date; Zimbabwe are playing Test cricket again, and the statistics in the tables are out of date.
- The tables lack row and column scopes, and I wonder if the Test table would benefit from being sortable.
- Which bring me onto the format of the Test table; although it is the normal format for these lists, I don't know how useful it is as a format, it seems clunky to me.
Hopefully we can work on this to bring it back to the standard needed, but I fear that without interest, it would fall out of date again soon even so. Harrias talk 09:02, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
:*I agree that the Test matches table looks bad IMO, there must be a neater format.
:*Most of the article is out of date, lead is out of date, and needs actual sourcing.
:*It could all be made sortable.
:Unless someone want to continually maintain and update it, it seems like it's eventually going to lose FA status- in it's current state I think it should be delisted. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:57, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
